Inspired by the signature sweetpotato dish at the acclaimed Cala restaurant in San Francisco, this simple, sublime recipe will make you look at sweetpotatoes in a whole different light. It features whole sweetpotatoes buried in ash, then roasted until blackened on the outside and sweet, smoky, and luscious within. The flesh gets spread on warm tortillas with a dollop of creamy chipotle sauce.

Sweetpotatoes go great with Mexican flavors in general, and chiles in particular—and this recipe proves it. Use canned enchilada sauce or make your own. Either way, ole!
Enjoy this sweet and only mildly spicy side dish, from Wish Upon A Dish, with grilled foods in the summer, braised meats in the fall and winter, and Easter ham or roast chicken in the spring. If by some miracle you have leftovers, toss ‘em in a salad.
